Hey guys. Well here's the new update. This might be a songfic chapter. Keyword: MIGHT. That means that Kagome will not be singing it. WILL NOT!! So, on with the fic!
I Cant Tell You
The week had came and gone by fast. It was now Thursday. (I swear that's my favorite day of the week.)
Kagome hadn't talked to Inuyasha since Saturday night. Sure, she had like 3 classes with him, but it seemed almost as if he was avoiding her. Every time she would try and walk up to him, he pretty much already smelled her or something and ran down the hall or started walking down the hall with Miroku.
Kagome sighed as she turned the corner to her English class. Would Inuyasha ever speak to her again? Was it something she said on Saturday night? They had had so much fun. Then out of nowhere Inuyasha had just gone back into his 'I aint telling you nothing' shell.
Kagome entered the classroom and took a seat. Sango sat across from her tossing her balled up notes every now and again. Kagome only looked at it and then nodded her head or shook her head instead of writing something back.
The rest of the class rushed in and the teacher did as well. The teacher's name was Ms. Hamasaki. She was Kikyou's grandmother. She was very elderly so no one dared to aggravate her. She was so cool though, that she that let the class call her by her first name, Kaede. There was a large rumor going around that Kaede was a miko. Only a select few amount of people believed it.
"Okay class. Settle down." Kaede said shuffling to the front of the room.
Everyone immediately stopped talking. Kaede coughed and began to speak again .
"We have a student transferring from remedial English. I hope you all will show him how things work in this classroom." She said.
Sango poked Kagome with a pencil. Kagome let out a small yelp then turned to face Sango.
"What?" She whispered. Sango put her head down low between the two desks like she was tying her shoe or something.
"Who do you think the new guy is?" She asked. Kagome shrugged. She guessed it was some regular old kid.
"Dont know. Im guessing someone we dont know?" She said.
Sango shrugged and straightened up again in her seat. After noticing that she had Sango's attention as well, Kaede spoke.
"Everyone, this is Inuyasha Takahashi. He will be in this classroom for the rest of the year." She said. Then Inuyasha walked in with his long silver hair flowing behind him. His dog ears twitching at every sound, and his eyes constantly scanning the room, as if looking for something. Some people snickered while others gasped. Kagome gasped also.
At the sound of her friend's gasping, Sango turned to her again.
"Kagome, do you know him?" She whispered. Kagome nodded with her mouth still agape.
"That's Inuyasha. He's a friend of mine, you could say." She said.
Sango nodded. Kaede spoke again. "Inuyasha, take a seat behind Kagome. Kagome raise you're hand." She said.
Kagome raised her hand in an embarrassed way. She already knew that Inuyasha would know where to sit. Inuyasha walked down the rows of desk and sat behind Kagome. He didn't say a word. He just continued to stare into space. Kagome would look back every now and again, but Inuyasha hardly noticed her.
Meanwhile, Inuyasha was busy thinking about how he could avoid Kagome more. Now he had to sit behind her in English, then the 3 other classes he had with her Art, Math, and Spanish, he sat behind her then too. He just didn't wanna talk to her due to the fact, that Kagome can just dig too deep with her questions sometimes. It was rather irritating. And what she had said on Saturday night, that was something someone wouldnt' go stale over. It just bothered him if she said she would suddenly debut his paintings when his father didn't allow him to do so. His father hated his dream. It didn't make him feel any better for someone to speak of what could never be.
Then Inuyasha felt something hit him in the head. He scowled and looked around and noticed a balled up piece of notebook paper was on his desk. He straightened the paper and read the note.
Inuyasha,
Are you mad?
Love Kagome.
Inuyasha snorted and scribbled something on the note. He made sure Kaede wasn't looking and tossed the note at the back of Kagome's head. She yelped from surprise then read what he wrote.
Not really.
Kagome scribbled something and was about to throw the note back when the bell rang and Kaede spoke.
"Well, that's the lunch bell. See you all tomorrow." She said turning around and stacking some papers on her desk.
Kagome walked out into the hallway and went to her locker. She threw her books in, then she went in the direction of the cafeteria.
"Hey Higurashi!" Kagome heard someone say. She turned around to see Kikyou running down the hallway wearing a dangerously short skirt and blue tanktop instead of the new school uniforms.
"Hey Kikyou, where's you're uniform?" Kagome asked walking along side Kikyou.
Kikyou snorted. "Being the most popular, not to mention rich, girl in school had it's benefits. My whole group of close friends dont wear uniform either. Anyway, there's another contest going on at Shito's. Wanna watch me win?" She asked, smirking.
Kagome rolled her eyes. "Kikyou, I heard how you're last performance went. I'll pass. Besides, I already won that thing once anyway." She said, getting into the lunch line.
Kikyou was green with envy. "Fine then, Higurashi. That was one of you're last chances to be cool. Im gonna go find some eye candy. Good day to you." She said, stomping away.
Kagome shrugged and grabbed and paid for her food. She walked over to her usual table. Sango was there, as well as Rin, Kagura, and Kanna.
"Hey guys." She said sitting down. The others nodded at her and continued to talk. Kagome didn't have much of an appetite. She was too busy thinking about Inuyasha. He never read the response she had wrote. Kagome abruptly stood up and tossed her lunch into the garbage can.
The 4 other girl's looked up at her. Kagome smiled and started to explain.
"I dont have much of an appetite. Im gonna go outside for some fresh air." She said. They all nodded and continued to talk.
Kagome opened the doors leading outside and walked around for a bit. Inuyasha most likely ate lunch out here considering he wanted to be alone all the time.
And she was right. She found him sitting in a sakura tree with his sketchbook.
"Hey." She said. Inuyasha looked down at her.
"Hey." He said back. He was now drawing something furiously in his sketchbook.
Kagome sat under the tree. "What are you drawing?" She asked.
She heard Inuyasha snort. "As if I'd tell you." He said. Kagome nodded.
"I suppose you're right. Inuyasha, did I say something the other night? I mean did I upset you-
"It's nothing." He said quickly. Kagome could still hear his pencil moving rapidly across the paper.
"It's not nothing. Why wont you talk to me? I had to have struck a nerve or something." She said.
Inuyasha growled loudly. "I said it's nothing!" He yelled. Kagome flinched.
"Why aren't you telling me what's bothering you? Im you're friend. Please tell me what you're hiding." She said.
Now she had really done it. Inuyasha hopped down from the tree and landed in from of her. He was growling menacingly. He leaned in close to her.
"I cant tell you what's wrong with me. I cant tell you what's bothering me. I wont tell you anything!" He whispered angrily.
He backed away from her and then walked away to the entrance of the school.
Kagome was shocked. Inuyasha always seemed kind of sweet and quiet. Not the the type to get angry so quickly.
What had happened to him for him to be this way? Why didn't he wanna tell her? His eyes had such an angry look. He was none too happy.
Kagome sighed and leaned back against the sakura tree. I cant force you.
Well, done. I hated this chapter to be honest. More fun next chapter. Definitley more fun. Well review. And keep a lookout for the next chapter of 'To Sing A Song,To Paint A Masterpiece' Entitled: Partners Part I
With that said, Sayonara!
